RE: CGA Trek

@classyk I may try porting it some day!! I found myself with some more free time on my hands lately (retired after 35 years of service) and picked up a book about C++!! Although I would use AMOS for Amiga games!! And no I still haven't finished Liberation!!

RE: CGA Trek

 I had an Amiga at the time, and never encountered it, until I switched to PC, in 1997!! I do not think anyone ported it to Amiga!!

RE: Microsoft sidewinder force feedback pro

@pinback Install Freespace 2 (from GoG or disks) and then install knossos.net ([url]https://fsnebula.org/knossos/).[/url]
You can then install FS1 with FS2 Enhanced graphics!!!
